Grew up in the western suburbs and playing for the Western Bulldogs, I love that. Always nice having locals play for the club, doesn’t happen much now because of the national draft.

Suns paid way over the odds for Petracca. Three first round picks including 7 and 8? Crazy. He’ll have a point to prove and will probably be a great addition but what they gave up is massive. Jamarra is an unknown quantity too. Guess time will tell with him.

Nothing will ever beat Travis Cloke’s smoke and shadows behind the window comment. Legendary.

Bit of a long way out from the GF so no predictions from me, not even going to predict that Jamarra will sort himself out. That’s 50/50.

Glad Buku Khamis is staying at the Dogs. I would’ve been really disappointed if he was traded out, especially when he’s a local western suburbs lad. Love the way he goes about it and the Dogs crowd can still shout “Bukuuuuuuuuuu!”

Luke Foley @lukefoley.me · 10h

We all want him to sort himself out and that it works out for him. What once looked like an amazing career ahead of him is now up in the air. But he has another chance. Let’s hope he takes it with both hands.

Luke Foley @lukefoley.me · 11h

Oh well he’s not our problem anymore so yeah, they have to deal with him now.

Luke Foley @lukefoley.me · 12h

And Bevo would be 100% correct.

Luke Foley @lukefoley.me · 12h

I’m glad we moved him on, he’s GC’s problem now. We can get on with business now without the Marra circus.

Luke Foley @lukefoley.me · 12h

He’ll love schoolies lol, plenty of partying up there but hopefully he’s not distracted by the Goldy glitz.

Luke Foley @lukefoley.me · 12h

Big fall from grace but we got him as an NGA player so it’s not like we wasted a number 1 pick per se. Anyway good luck to him, best move for both club and player.

Luke Foley @lukefoley.me · 12h

Well Jamarra’s gone to the Suns and he’s a Bulldog no more. Hard to believe in 2022 he announced himself with a huge five goal performance and had the world at his feet. Fast forward three years and his career is at the crossroads. He’s got a second chance so hopefully he can get his head right.

Just don’t find yourself another cult hero Rooboy and you’ll be fine 😂😂

Luke Foley @lukefoley.me · 12h

First Eddie now Finnbar, you’re cursed lol.

Luke Foley @lukefoley.me · 12h

Yes but that was after my post saying a deal wasn’t done. Only got done about 20-25 minutes ago. Pick 74.

Luke Foley @lukefoley.me · 13h

@eddiefordclinic.bsky.social ain’t gonna be happy! 😤

Luke Foley @lukefoley.me · 13h

Nothing’s official yet, the deal isn’t done. Nothing confirmed on the Bulldogs app or from the AFL. No talk of what the trade is either re: draft pick.

Luke Foley @lukefoley.me · 13h

Last day today mate, ends 7.30pm.

Luke Foley @lukefoley.me · 13h

#AFL Trade Deadline Day is the only day worth taking notice of because it’s when most of the deals happen. You just know the last 30-60 minutes will be hectic. All I want is Jamarra gone so we can all move on. He’s become too much of a distraction at the Dogs.

Sign the petition to ban convicted child rapist Steven van de Velde from entering Australia.

Can you spare a minute to help this campaign?

Yep I’m surprised it’s dragged on this long too. Thought VicPol would’ve found him and shot him dead after a day or so.

Luke Foley @lukefoley.me · 18h

So many questions and theories left unanswered. Who knows? Some people might know but the general public and authorities sure as hell don’t.

Luke Foley @lukefoley.me · 18h

Yeah but they’ll wanna find his corpse and do an autopsy though 🤔
